Bellroy x MAAP Shift Backpack

Designed specifically for the modern urban bike rider, the MAAP x Bellroy Shift Backpack is perfect for carrying your stuff as you zigzag through city traffic and make your way across the dizzying maze of the city. It’s for the urban cyclist, but never failing to give it a more refined aesthetic plus a bevy of features that any rider will definitely love.

Combining the luxurious qualities of leather and the water-resistant characteristics of Venture Weave, the Shift is a cycling backpack that will never say no to the rain as well as a rare invite to a formal gathering at some high-class affair. It comes with a number of pockets that can be easily accessed from the side, yet features full security so only you can get your hands on your valuables.

The Shift comes with a quick-access valuables pocket that comes in real handy in securing your most prized possessions including your smartphone. And instead of a top-access to the main compartment, you’re given the side to make it a lot easier to obtain your essentials even with the Shift on your back.

The main compartment features a fully padded storage that’s perfect for a 15-inch laptop, although you’re encouraged to slip in your smaller gadgets, too. The outer shell of the Shift comes with reflective strips which aids the bike light loop to give you better visibility to other motorists in low-light riding conditions.

The back panel is constructed of mesh fabric, allowing for improved airflow to your back. As you ride through the city streets, your back will be free from the accumulation of moisture. Even the shoulder straps are padded, a characteristic that is now a standard in all backpacks.

The MAAP x Bellroy Shift is a good alternative to conventional backpacks. It has reliable construction and thoughtful design.
